Learning from the Past and Moving Forward: Implementing School Nursing Research Priorities

The editorial School nursing research and research implementation priorities, highlights how the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) research priorities are crucial to moving school nursing and school health research forward. In this editorial we echo the importance of school nurses reading and understanding published articles in The Journal of School Nursing and contributing to research that informs school nursing practice. Each of the NASNs research priorities is vital to the science supporting school nursing practice. We encourage school nurses and researchers, and implementation scientists to partner to contribute school nursing evidence that guides the specialties' practice and informs policy to positively impact student health and education outcomes.
